A Little Fun Keeps You Young Poem by Meggie Gultiano

A Little Fun Keeps You Young

Rating: 4.0


A little fun keeps you young;
A little laughter keeps you bright.
When you get to that age
When a mid life crisis looms
Go out and act like a kid again.
Don't worry what the neighbors might say
They are probably crazy anyway.

Change your hair color grow it long
Change your style and wear a thong
That will put some spring in your step
Or goose yourself to give you some pep
Don't worry what the neighbors might say
They are probably crazy anyway

Dance till the wee hours in the morning
Let loose, but don't get lost in the spring
Smile, even if there's nobody around
Run, until you're nowhere to be found
Don't worry what the neighbors might say
You are more than crazy than they anyway..


Pssst..have fun reading this, please, lol.

a fun collab write with David Harris and Jojo Bean

Superb write and very sharp humor, love the thoughts in this kyrielle poem. The last lines repeated gave the poem a lot of pizazz. Happy New Year Meggie.
